Tire war brewing?
Permalink  

From Jayski.com:


  • Tire War coming? Another Goodyear-Hoosier tire war may be brewing behind the scenes, with reports that Hoosier engineers are testing new tires with Nextel Cup teams and trying to baseline those tires on some specific compounds and designs, to mimic the Goodyears. One test was reported to have been held in the past week or so at Kentucky Motor Speedway, and the next test is reported to be scheduled for Nashville, both apparently with Dodge drivers. It is unclear which NASCAR Cup teams might be running the tests with Hoosier, and Hoosier's Bob Newton could not be reached for comment.(more at the Winston-Salem Journal)(3-13-2006)

    If you remember most of Geoff Bodines wins came on Hooisers. The next year everyone had to run GOOD-YEARS, if they did'nt change the rules Geoff would have been Champion. Maybe a little kick back from the Eagles, what do you think?
